Your Call 012508 Friday Media Roundtable
Your Call 012408 What is the state of Iraqi government?
What is the current state of Iraqi government? On the next Your Call, we’ll discuss the internal political situation in Iraq. Earlier this week, a suicide bomber walked into a school in downtown Baquba, wounding 20 students and teachers. As the United State is claiming victory with its so-called surge, Iraq is marred with daily violence. What has changed in Iraq? And what role is the Iraqi government playing to keep the country together? It’s your call, with Rose Aguilar and you.
Guest:
Yanar Mohammed, an Iraqi activist and the director of the Organization of Women's Freedom in Iraq.
Nabil Al-Tikriti, an assistant professor of history at the University of Mary Washington in Fredericksburg, Virginia.
